I speak a few languages and there's a suprising amount of articles available on other wikis and not here, so I'll try to help with translations.
Entries I created (and why) edit
As I'm finding articles to translate I realize that there is almost always a reason I picked them.
Politics edit
- Let Txapote vote for you - all over the news in Spain in the Summer of 2023. Interesting story.
- Chadian constitution of 2018 - The only one I can't remember how I stumbled onto, but I suspect a red link in an article I was reading somewhere.
- Chiasso scandal - 2023 will be the year Credit Suisse finally collapsed. It apparently all started there.
- Special Provisions - when I found out there was a huge difference between having a vague knowledge of something, and getting the fine print.
- Gonzalo Thought - following Txapote it was suggested to me that I look into 1980s Peru. I was not disappointed.
- Blood quota - follow up on the above.
- Charter of Paris against cancer - History within the bigger event
Culture edit
- The Surrender of Granada - a painting I liked
- Spanish Academy in Rome - follow up on the above
- Ah ! Les crocodiles - having kids, it amazes me that a XIXth century opera could be turned into a song for them.
- Dziennik Łódzki - I think I wanted to try my hand at Polish at some point
- Conference Hall of the Senate, in March 1904 - a painting showing the Rendicion de Granada. Meta!
People edit
- Camille-Léopold Cabaillot-Lassalle - saw one of his paintings at a museum nearby that I quite liked.
- Jacek Olczak - I remember meeting him 10+ years ago and then in 2020 he becomes a Fortune 500 CEO: my closest brush with career success.
- Fabienne Fischer - in hindsight she probably was less important that the guy she replaced, but hers was a red link.
- Antonio Hodgers - I remember his red link next to other State Councillor's entries striking me as very surprising.
- Frieda Keller - found it randomly and I was like, "Holy crap this is dark".
- Francisco Javier García Gaztelu, alias Txapote. I translated the entry about the slogan, I had to follow-up with the actual guy.
Todo edit
- Last supper - about the 1993 US Defense meeting (heard from in a podcast)
- Drawsko dinner - Polish politics (from podcast)
- Corsa delle uova - no idea where I heard this from but looks fun
- Michel Goya (fr) - Interesting military analyst / historian
- Parti chrétien-social indépendant (fr) - Minuscule government party in a minuscule canton.
- Société littéraire typographique de Kehl (fr) - random stumble, pretty cool
- Bundesratsfoto (de) - Swiss must-have
- Albert Longchamp (fr) - not every day that a friend's uncle made history by having the Constitution changed for them.
